Hi,

I have a 120 gallon I just setup with with a sump that i was planning on using as a cichlid tank but I have a 135 gallon reef tank and now I'm thinking maybe I just use the 120 as a FOWLR tank.

What would be some stocking options with this 4x2 setup ?

So far im thinking:

Blue Spot Puffer
Yellow Corris Wrasse
Foxface
Marine Betta
Dwarf Lion Fish (not sure if compatible with other fish)
Maybe a 6+ damsels for some color (azure or yellow tails) typically the non satanspawn fish
Gold Stripe Maroon Clownfish pair ??


Thanks
Bill

Fish discussion is a good place for it.

I think you're original list looks pretty good. I usually would stay away from the bigger meaner clowns like maroons and clarkiis, but you might be okay. A full grown maroon might go after the damsels, and a full grown dwarf lion (fuzzy, zebra?) will eat them, but those damsels may be expendable to you. The lion is fine with everything except smaller damsels when it's an adult.
